The robot learns to sequence the execution of a set of innate controllers to solve a task, extracts and retains components of that solution as portable skills, and then transfers those skills to reduce the time required to learn to solve a second task.}, author = {George Konidaris and Scott Kuindersma and Roderic Grupen and Andrew Barto} }
